So I knew I should not have tried that survey
« on: March 10, 2012, 08:29:06 pm »
I have talked about how I don't do the surveys here or anywhere else anymore because I get too frustrated when you answer questions for a long time and then don't qualify.

Well, tonight I got this email for a FC Survey:
You're invited to join a new movie and TV panel! As a member of this panel you'll evaluate new movies and TV shows and bet in a fantasy league format on how well you think they will perform. Your winnings can be exchanged for various cash and prizes! To earn your reward from us, you must join and bet on at least 5 topics in new panel.

Since I thought it sounded kinda interesting and because it said that the time to complete was only 5 minutes, I thought I would give it a go.  Well 10 minutes into it after they had asked me the age of my child 7 or 8 times, they said I didn't qualify.  I don't mind not qualifying so much, but I don't think they should be able to tell you that the survey takes 5 minutes when it takes 10 minutes to qualify and be told you don't make it.  And they survey had nothing to do with what the email said.

Ok just wanted to vent.  Guess I just needed to be reminded why I don't do surveys.  lol

I did that survey and completed it.  It was longer than the five minutes, but I got my credit for it and now I'm having fun at the site.  Last night I did one that was five minutes and it said five dollars - only today to find out I was credited nine dollars for it!!  Yes, it is frustrating to find out ten minutes in to a survey you don't qualify - which has happened to me before.  But the ones you do make up for it.  And - I rarely fill out surveys, or attempt to.  But I've had really good luck with the new FC ones.  For once, it appears, those "profiles" I filled out (for fifty cents) are really working.
End the suffering!  Get your cats - and all strays and ferals - spayed and neutered!

I have only qualified for one Fusion Cash survey. I was really excited when I did so. And I even got a $1 credit.  ;D

I know what you mean when you write that you spent a lot of time trying to qualify only to be told you did not qualify for the survey.  I have been down that road and it is very frustrating. It also made me angry. And like you, I just wanted to vent.  :BangHead:

Even worse is when you finish a survey completely. I spent 15 - 20 minutes completing a survey on another site. I got the demos and the thank you page. I came to submit. I submitted and got a message that I did not qualify. I never got any credit for the completed survey.  I wrote support and still did not get credit. This was not Fusion Cash.

I always suggest taking a deep breath when beginning a survey. And keep trying, especially the FC surveys. They seem to credit well when you do qualify and complete one.  :wave:

I agree with the "vent". Surveys are a bit trying on the patience. Especially this one since I don't have cable or satellite TV. But, I continue on.

I got where I don't do surveys much anymore for the same reason.  I get about all the way through and it says I don't qualify.  Seems a waste of time.  Hope  everyone has a good day and may God bless each of you and keep you safe.

I've had a few FC surveys that didn't work out for me, especially the ones I got as an email invitation but I've had enough that paid that I'm adjusting my ban on surveys :)

I wish I had more patience.  It is really something I am very bad about.  Maybe I need impatience anonymous.

I'm not sure how long any IA meetings would last if everyone were to get up and leave after the first 5 minutes though.

I'd like to try that one. I probably wont get it but it' doesn't hurt. I too get 'don't qualified' after 15 minues of trying to be aproved. The last too surveys I did I di make it through the whole thing!

There is no trick. It's just whether or not you fit into their demographic that they are interested in or not. Good luck. :)
